I’m a creative guide, leadership coach, and communications partner who helps thoughtful professionals — especially creative types in corporate environments — reconnect with what matters, create meaning and purpose in life and work.

My path started in art school, I was taught to draw what you see, not what you think you see. This trained me to look closely, ask better questions, stay curious, and be open to multiple truths — skills I still use every day in my coaching and consulting work.

My curiosity led me to working with art museums, visitor experience design, then user-centered design, tech marketing, and leadership consulting and coaching.

I care deeply about the human drive to create, to see that our efforts made a change in the world. I make little things all the time — art, craft, essays, projects. This attitude shapes how I work with people: we don’t just talk about change, we make things. We experiment.

Like many people, I’ve experienced seasons of uncertainty, notably several layoffs and breast cancer. Those times deepened my belief that creativity, clarity, and courage aren’t unnecessary fluff, they’re survival tools. They’re what help us lead ourselves (and others) with intention and meaning.

In my search to understand life, I’ve discovered that much of what influences someone’s experiences has to do with how they think, what they believe. That has developed over a lifetime of personal experiences. However, it is possible to shift one’s perspective with some space, tools, and practice. This type of work helps people see with new clarity, opening possibilities they never knew were possible.

I live what I teach

• Noticing and discarding beliefs that no longer serve me.

• Guiding myself to an intentional life when I’ve started to drift.

• Returning to my creativity.

• Stretching beyond what is familiar.

• Summoning courage in the face of resistance, fear, or old patterns.

• Making space to accept (and maybe even love) reality, especially when it’s not what I hoped.

• Letting go of the need to be right.

• Learning to lead and support others from a place of clarity and wholeness.

• And most of all: Remembering that I am exactly where I meant to be. There can be no other reality than the one that is present.
